A Staten Island Muslim planned to join the Army so he could be deployed to Iraq. Once there, he would join the jihadis (Taliban) to kill American troops. Abdel Shehadeh, a U.S. citizen, went so far as to try to enlist at the Army recruiting station in Times Square.
"He's just a regular kid." said his cousin.
Yes, I am sure he is. He found his religion, Islam.
What all the obfuscators and islamic apologists refuse to address is that the millions of jihadis all quote the same book, the same chapters, the same verses, the non-abrogated (later, more violent) chapters of the qur'an.
This is is jihad.
Feds nab former Staten Island resident Abdel Hameed Shehadeh in failed Taliban bid NY Daily News
A former Staten Island resident has been arrested in Hawaii and will be brought to New York to face charges of lying about a failed attempt to join the Taliban.
Farooque Ahmed has been arrested over a plot to bomb subway stations in the US capital.
What is being done to expunge the qu'ran of its violent texts. Yesterday, a NYC Muslim was arrested for planning to join the Army so he could be deployed to Iraq. Once there, he would join the jihadis (Taliban) to kill American troops. Abdel Shehadeh, a U.S. citizen, went so far as to try to enlist at the Army recruiting station in Times Square (lest we not forget the Muslim who attempted to car bomb Times Square as well and kill tens of thousands.)
The Islamic supremacists target me and my colleagues. We are not the problem. What all the obfuscators and islamic apologists refuse to address is that the millions of jihadis all quote the same book, the same chapters, the same verses, the non-abrogated (later, more violent) chapters of the qur'an.
Man arrested over 'plot to bomb Washington DC metro' BBC
A man has been arrested over a plot to bomb subway stations in the US capital.
Farooque Ahmed, 34, of Ashburn, Virginia was conspiring with people he believed were from al-Qaeda, the Department of Justice said.
Mr Ahmed was taken into custody on Wednesday morning. If convicted he faces up to 50 years in prison.
The suspect allegedly conducted surveillance of a metro station in Arlington, on the outskirts of Washington, DC, on four occasions.
"It's chilling that a man from Ashburn is accused of casing rail stations with the goal of killing as many Metro riders as possible through simultaneous bomb attacks," said US attorney Neil MacBride.
"Today's arrest highlights the terrorism threat that exists in northern Virginia and our ability to find those seeking to harm US citizens and neutralise them before they can act."
[...]The indictment against Mr Ahmed said that on 18 April he drove to a hotel in Dulles, Virginia, to meet someone who he believed was a terrorist courier who had details of locations for future meetings.
Officials said that on 15 May, at a nearby hotel in Herndon, Virginia, Mr Ahmed agreed to carry out surveillance on a hotel in Washington and a metro station in Arlington, Virginia, to determine security and the busiest times.
Mr Ahmed, according to the indictment, later provided a USB stick with video of the station to a person he believed was from al-Qaeda. On 28 September, Mr Ahmed allegedly handed over another USB drive with more images of stations.
